[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1104520, member: 90399"] That 45 Raptor can produce 3,700ft lbs of energy as well. :D My whitetail hunting camp is about 16 guys deep. We all use shotguns because that is the area of Michigan we hunt. The 870 pump shotgun is by far the most common gun we use. Over the years I have seen enough of them jam, that I don't know if I'd trust one for a 2nd shot anymore than I would trust an AR platform for the 2nd shot. And I would just assume that many of those fishing guides in Alaska are trusting the 870 to perform when needed. I agree, it is an interesting post though. While I've been following this thread, I just keep asking myself "Well what is the guy next to me carrying?" [/QUOTE]
